3.16.70-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit e42280886018c6f77f0a90190f7cba344b0df3e0 upstream. Shifting a u8 by 24 will cause the value to be promoted to an integer. If the top bit of the u8 is set then the following conversion to an unsigned long will sign extend the value causing the upper 32 bits to be set in the result. Fix this by casting the u8 value to an unsigned long before the shift.
